Description
The stories of more than three hundred prominent families and individuals along with the author's own experiences are told. They include the world of exclusive clubs and organizations for affluent African-Americans. The unwritten requirement of membership in these establishments are exposed: The brown paper bag and ruler test as well as wealth and connections. Simply put, anyone whose skin is darker than a brown paper bag fails to meet the criteria.
